I used Teri's Polar bears image and they are just gorgeous

Hope you can join in the challenge this week

Again I must apologise for being a bad blogger and will visit you soon- just been inundated with Christmas card orders and they are still coming in thick and fast and also orders for card making kits for children- working on three as we speak

A little sprinkling of snow yesterday but it has now froze over and is very icy- hope we don;t get more snow but the forecast says more on the way

Just a quick post from me today to show some of the quick Christmas cards I've made using some of Teri's wonderful images at Delicious DoodlesThe wolf and the mail box were printed onto super glossy photo paper and it makes the images look even more wonderful

Happy Thursday everyone and this week its my turn to set the Charisma challenge and I chose

A Christmas Gift or Bag or Envelope

So what is that in my gift I hear you ask- its a little lip gloss

pop over and see the rest of the DT's wonderful creations and I look forward to visiting you all this week

Had a nightmare in the snow this week, car was abandoned for three days and yesterday I managed to get to mum and dads and had to walk to work and back home all week, pulled muscle in my leg which is very sore- have never saw snow like this in all my life and when I was driving my car it said it was minus 12, please go away snow, enough is enough

Hope to take some photos today to let you see what like it is, I have icicles hanging from my roof that would be right at home in the North pole- probably warmer there than it is here

It is an Anything Goes challenge at Top Tip Tuesday this week and I would like to enter these two cards for that challenge. They are made using delicious papers and images from Teri at Delicious Doodles

Snowflake and Star papers and the Wolf and Artic fox image are what I used- I made a couple of cards for someone at work and when I took them in for them I got quite a few order for more so you have to excuse my bad bloggy skills of late as I have been busy busy busy trying to keep up with the orders

Today has two books in store for me of IgglePiggle and if like me you didn't know who that was then please don't bother googling it- it's from a children's programme called in the Night Garden and it is all a bit strange- suppose if you are a young child it's wonderful but.....already did one book and when I took that in got orders for a couple more so I will be IgglePiggled all day and half the week

No more fresh snow here for a couple of days but what is lying has now froze and the snow plow that woke me up at 6 am yesterday scooped up all my kerb stones and left them in a pile with lots of snow at the bottom of my drive... grrr. was not a happy bunny I can tell you...
